Forget what the Honda dealer said.

You need to get the idle down.
What year are the carbs.
Can you take a photo of the top of the carbs with  the top covers off?

I am betting the locknut and set screw are wrong.
Did you stick some drill bit or something under the slide to bench sync them?

The slides are just open too far OR you are running pods and you did not change the idle jet.
That will cause the idle to be high from a lean condition.
